Chapter 14, Drill c: Practice using personal pronouns (including reflexive pronouns) and possessive adjectives.

Each short Latin sentence has in parentheses an English pronoun or a phrase which can be translated by a Latin pronoun or possessive adjective. Provide the correct Latin pronoun or possessive adjective, using is ea id for the third person demonstrative unless there is a reason to use ille illa illud.

Examples:
pater (you, singular) flores dat.
Answer: tibi: this is clearly an indirect object, so dative is necessary.
puer (i.e. he washes up, washes himself) lavat.
Answer: se: lavat is reflexive here and requires a reflexive pronoun as direct object; the verb is third person singular, so the third-person reflexive is needed.
Horatia (him) videt.
Answer: eum: since "him" can't refer to the subject and refers to someone else, eum would be correct.
